They do not teach you everything you need to know about a subject. Instead, we streamline and highlight the pertinent information by presenting and dissecting the questions and problems we discovered that you're likely to encounter on a Microsoft test.Nevertheless, if you want to completely prepare yourself for any Microsoft test, we recommend that you begin by taking the self-assessment included in this book, immediately following this introduction.

On the other hand, you might decide to pick up and read one of the many study guides available from Microsoft or third-party vendors. We also recommend that you supplement your study program with visits to http://www.examcram.com to receive additional practice questions, get advice, and track the Windows certification programs.This book also offers you an added bonus of accessingExam Crampractice tests online.

This software simulates the Microsoft testing environment with similar types of questions that you're likely to see on the actual Microsoft exam. We also strongly recommend that you install, configure, and play around with the Microsoft Windows Vista operating system.
